We’ve been working with StartHuman since 2019 and every experience has been outstanding. Amber is truly remarkable, delivering exceptional service that always surpasses our expectations. She took the time to listen to our challenges and quickly demonstrated a deep understanding of our organization, skillfully navigating our complexities and bureaucratic limitations. She has supported key efforts for leaders at all levels such as Dare to Lead, Change Management, executive coaching, and other leadership training. Her expertise and commitment set her apart as she found creative and effective ways to help us work within our constraints, demonstrating her adaptability and commitment to customized solutions. This blend of expertise, personalized support, and innovative problem solving makes Amber and StartHuman an unparalleled choice for tailored and impactful solutions.

“I would recommend Amber to any team looking to become better leaders and humans. If you’re willing to put the work in, you’ll get a lot out of it.”
My team wanted to get on the same page about what a good leader should look like. I initially chose Amber because she’s a trained Dare to Lead facilitator, and I’m a huge Brene Brown geek. However, it was immediately apparent that Amber took it a step further. She instantly incorporated feedback and personalized the program to meet our goals. As a result, I’ve noticed my team engaging in more open conversations and have gotten feedback that they’ve taken the work into their personal lives.

“StartHuman gave us a shared language with which we can effectively communicate with one another, especially when having difficult conversations.”
Courses like Management Essentials and Self-Leadership have given our people-leaders tools to lead their teams with integrity and open communication. Our team has built a workplace we can be proud of and that was recognized when we were awarded 1st place as "The Best Places to Work in Northern Nevada" in 2018 and 2019.

“Our Mandela Washington Fellows continue to reflect on what they learned for years after working with Amber. I can’t imagine doing our programs without her - she’s just the best.”
When finding people to partner with, we look for people who can cross international and intercultural boundaries. Amber had that skillset from the very beginning even though she hadn’t done that work before. She’s so good at what she does that becoming internationally oriented was an easy jump for her. By teaching the toolsets that allow people to think outside the box, Amber has empowered many people around the world to work more effectively together.
